Wrong problems

Post by mermeladeK »

Hi,

I am 2k EGF and I have been practicing with go problems for a short time.

I like goproblems.com since it is the best, fastests and easiest site to practice tsumegos and other stuff. HOWEVER, I sadly found that there are problems that are wrong or do not contemplate good solutions. This is a little frustrating because it means goproblems is not as serious as I thought and that I cannot rely on the solutions, hence it is sometimes not the best place to learn.

I've commented hoping to see the problems corrected but what I just realized that mostly nobody cares about it (I guess the authors). So I strongly believe there should be a way to make this happen. Seing a problem with a wrong solution, stating that white can wins when it is false... ehem. I also found problems where the error had been found ages ago but someone else and nothing has changed yet.

Is this gonna change or I will have to look for another problem source?

List of problems with errors I found:
3303, 3732, 9973

Thanks,

Nil

well actually -
#3303 is fixed :) only took 4 years, cheer up! :)
#3732 has my idea of the groups status and as for
#9973 you're right... how much time did it take to update it? :)

ppl make problems, ppl make mistakes - it's up to ppl like you and me to comment and suggest other vars...
adum actually said in another thread that he's planning on adding a flag feature to flag duplicates and other problems which need attention...

Hi Santa C,

Yes you are right. It's up to people, but it would be cool to have some kind of interface feature that would speed this up.

Thanks!!
